Committed Thunder post 1st series win since 16

OK, it's officially time to lock in my 2024 NFL draft rankings.

I spent the past week finalizing my board, from a dynamic receiver at No. 1 overall all the way down to the undrafted free agent candidates. It wasn't easy -- this class is loaded with potential first-round stars, midround sleepers and late-round players with upside. But I ultimately listed 400 prospects. I also included in-depth scouting notes on my top 50 players, as well as my top five positional rankings at the bottom. Let's get going.

Jump to prospects graded in: Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 Round 5 | Round 6 | Round 7 | UDFA

1. Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State

Height: 6-foot-4 | Weight: 209 pounds | Grade: Round 1

Harrison has rare body control, strong hands and great flexibility, putting him in line with the top receiver prospects we've seen this century. Despite inconsistent QB play at Ohio State in 2023, he still managed to be arguably the most dangerous playmaker in the country, compiling 67 catches for 1,211 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns. He's able to win in a variety of ways, showing the route-running skills of a smaller receiver. And Harrison is an instant-impact type of prospect with the potential to be a top-10 receiver in the NFL as early as his rookie season.

2. Caleb Williams, QB, USC

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 214 | Grade: Round 1

Williams hasn't wavered as my QB1 in this class. I see a lot of "wow" moments on tape, a product of his confidence in his arm and terrific playmaking ability. He's capable of dissecting defensive looks and delivering the ball quickly. But on the flip side, his all-or-nothing habits will need to be tempered, as he tends to want the highlight-worthy play rather than just taking what the defense gives him too often. Williams finished the season with a 72.9% completion percentage on throws from inside the pocket (fifth-best in the FBS), and he threw for 3,633 yards, 30 touchdown passes and five interceptions in 2023.

3. Malik Nabers, WR, LSU

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 199 | Grade: Round 1

Explosive is the best word to describe Nabers' game. The LSU offense involved him on quick screens, jet sweeps and reverses, as he's a dynamic and competitive playmaker who can turn short passes into long gains. Nabers led the country in receiving yards per game at 120.7 and forced 27 missed tackles on receptions (sixth), proving that he's a well-rounded route runner who can put stress on defenses at any moment because of his ability to create extra opportunities. He has some shades of Bears receiver DJ Moore to his game.

4. Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina

Height: 6-4 | Weight: 223 | Grade: Round 1

Watch his tape, and you'll see five or six plays per game that make you marvel at Maye's overall ability. He has the arm strength to get the ball to all levels, completing 35 passes of 20-plus air yards -- third-most in the country. He has prototypical size and is also an underrated runner. Progression effectiveness is an area where Maye will need to improve, as he tends to hang onto reads too long and compound mistakes instead of getting through to the next available option. I see some similarities to Justin Herbert, though Maye's arm isn't quite as strong.

5. Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame

Height: 6-9 | Weight: 321 | Grade: Round 1

There isn't another prospect I was more impressed with while out on the road live scouting this past year. Alt came to the Irish as a tight end, but his transition to offensive tackle over the past three seasons has been seamless. He's the most versatile blocker in this loaded OT class. Thanks to unique arm length, he is difficult for defenders to get around -- but he also overwhelms pass-rushers. Alt had some technique and flexibility question marks coming into last season, but he has fixed those issues and become a model of consistency. And he's quick, posting a 5.05-second 40-yard dash at the combine with a 1.73-second 10-yard split -- tied for ninth best among offensive linemen. After allowing one sack in 2023, Alt is a plug-and-play left tackle who will be a plus starter for more than a decade.

6. Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU

Height: 6-4 | Weight: 210 | Grade: Round 1

Every year, there's a quarterback who makes a surprise ascension after a breakout season. That's Daniels this time around. He finished first in the FBS in Total QBR (95.6) and passing yards per attempt (11.7). An exceptional vertical passer, Daniels has a great feel for layering the ball, completing 67% of passes thrown 20-plus yards downfield. Daniels is also an instinctive runner who can turn quick scrambles into explosive plays. The next step for him is learning to drive the ball in the intermediate areas and showcasing more consistent ball placement over the middle.

7. Rome Odunze, WR, Washington

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 212 | Grade: Round 1

A silky-smooth receiver, Odunze is the most polished player at the position in this class. He hardly ever allows defenders to dictate his route tempos while operating primarily from the outside, and with 92 catches for 1,640 receiving yards and 13 touchdown catches last season, Odunze is a sure-handed target who makes catches in all types of situations. His game flourished in the Huskies' vertical offense, as 10 of his touchdown catches came on those patterns -- and Odunze ran a solid 4.45-second 40 at the combine. His 24 contested catches were tied for the most in the FBS, as he has very strong hands and body control at the catch point.

8. Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 243 | Grade: Round 1

Bowers' formational versatility and reliability at the catch point are unmatched in this class. The clear TE1 can be a mismatch all over the field. One of the most impressive parts about his game is his run-after-catch ability; he's difficult to bring down. His 494 receiving yards after the catch and 253 after first contact both led all FBS tight ends last season. Positional value will come into the equation with Bowers, but he's one of the best overall playmakers in this class.

9. Dallas Turner, EDGE, Alabama

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 247 | Grade: Round 1

The biggest question for Turner entering the 2023 season was how well he would assume the Will Anderson Jr. role in the Alabama defense -- and he delivered with 10 sacks and the FBS' eighth-best pressure rate of 16.7%. Turner's upside is immense, and while he still needs to add some nuance to his pass-rush arsenal, he already has an intriguing starter kit of tools. He's also improving as a run defender, consistently setting a firm edge and using his length to contain runs. Turner has even shown he's comfortable with dropping in coverage -- he has a versatile skill set that can fit in many defensive fronts. He had the fastest 40 time (4.46 seconds) and highest vertical leap (40.5 inches) of all defensive ends at the combine.

10. Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State

Height: 6-6 | Weight: 312 | Grade: Round 1

Fashanu is as consistent as they come -- one sack allowed during his three-year career as a starter -- and his balance, strength and recovery ability in pass protection are NFL-ready. His run blocking remains a work in progress, but his physicality and hand placement have improved. His ability to identify and execute against different defensive scheme looks is exceptional -- and a big key to Fashanu's consistency. He has franchise left tackle written all over him and projects as a Day 1 starter.

11. Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 189 | Grade: Round 1

He came to Bama as a raw safety, but Arnold transitioned to cornerback in 2022, where the redshirt sophomore had five interceptions this past season. He is an effortless mover with the hip mobility to turn and run with receivers, and his time at safety has helped him when asked to play in the slot. Arnold tends to be grabby at the top of routes and when re-directing, and he will need to learn to trust his technique more, but his upside could make him the first corner off the board.

12. Jared Verse, EDGE, Florida State

Height: 6-4 | Weight: 254 | Grade: Round 1

A heavy-handed pass-rusher, Verse burst onto the scene after transferring from Albany prior to the 2022 season. He has plenty of knock-back strength at the point of attack, and he often displays speed-to-power moves to help generate pressure, collapsing the pocket by keeping offensive tackles off-balance. He had a slow start to the 2023 season but followed that up with a dominant back-end stretch -- 6.5 of his nine sacks came during the final five regular-season games. Verse's skill set is similar to that of Cowboys pass-rusher DeMarcus Lawrence in that he can win with speed, power and/or finesse while also having the versatility to play multiple spots up front.

13. Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State

Height: 6-6 | Weight: 324 | Grade: Round 1

As a pass-protector, Fuaga plays with enough balance to keep his frame in front of defenders, and we saw his quick footwork at the combine during positional drills. His hand power is his best trait, though -- he shows unique strength to strike and end pass-rush reps quickly. Fuaga seeks to impose his will throughout games, and he allowed one sack over his two seasons as a full-time starter. He's an ideal fit in a man-blocking scheme or one that would allow him to use his play strength and physicality. Fuaga must learn to play with more control, as six of his eight penalties last season came on false starts.

14. Laiatu Latu, EDGE, UCLA

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 259 | Grade: Round 1

Latu is the most skilled pass-rusher in this draft class. His combination of get-off quickness, bend and finishing ability helped him take his game to another level last season. He was one of two players with a pressure rate above 20% (20.4%) last season, and he had 23.5 sacks since transferring in from Washington in 2022. Latu is also stout against the run and comfortable with dropping in coverage, even recording two interceptions last season. Medicals remain the biggest question -- he was forced to sit out for two seasons because of a 2020 neck injury -- but Latu has the potential to be an impact player right away because of his pass-rush traits.

15. Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 195 | Grade: Round 1

Mitchell caught scouts' attention in 2022 after a four-interception performance against Northern Illinois. The linchpin of the Toledo secondary bounces between playing outside, nickel and safety. But wherever he is, he is a ball magnet; Mitchell was third in the nation with 15 pass breakups last season. He plays with busy eyes and is quick to plant and drive on routes in front of him. And Mitchell allowed completions on 35.6% of passes when he was the primary defender in 2023, top-30 in the country. His draft stock has steadily improved, and he now has a chance to be selected in the top 15 after a great Senior Bowl showing and a 4.33 in the 40-yard dash at the combine.

16. JC Latham, OT, Alabama

Height: 6-6 | Weight: 342 | Grade: Round 1

Latham is the definition of a people-mover. He's a dominant run-blocker with the power to generate plenty of movement at the first level. I see impressive quickness for a blocker of his size, and his upper and lower body remain in sync as his base helps him anchor against pass-rushers. Once Latham gets his hands on defenders, he can quickly halt their pass-rush moves, evidenced by two sacks allowed in as many seasons as a starter in Tuscaloosa. He can be susceptible to inside countermoves, though. Latham will fit best with an NFL team that prioritizes downhill running.

17. Byron Murphy II, DT, Texas

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 297 | Grade: Round 1

Murphy is a versatile 3-technique coming off a breakout season (his first as a starter). He's a stout presence against the run, consistently able to penetrate the first level to make plays in the backfield (6.5 tackles for loss and 11 run stops last season). Murphy also has the hand quickness to defeat one-on-one blocks and the lower-body strength to hold up against double-teams. And we saw his explosiveness at the combine, as he ran a 4.87-second 40 and jumped 33 inches in the vert -- both ranking in the top three among DTs. But his greatest asset is causing disruption as a pass-rusher. Murphy recorded a 12.7% pressure rate while at defensive tackle last year, the highest rate in the FBS.

18. Troy Fautanu, OT/G, Washington

Height: 6-4 | Weight: 317 | Grade: Round 1

Fautanu settled into the left tackle spot for Washington in 2023 after seesawing back and forth between tackle and guard throughout his career. I might try him at offensive tackle first in the pros, but he has better upside as a high-level guard at the next level. A sudden and physical blocker, Fautanu plays the game with active feet and aggressive hands (two sacks allowed over 1,249 career pass-block snaps), and he looks to finish every defender he encounters. Because of his lower-half quickness, he's hardly ever out of position, and he plays through the whistle. I was really impressed with his combine showing, too.

19. Graham Barton, C, Duke

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 313 | Grade: Round 1

Barton originally began his career with the Blue Devils as a center but has been a starter at offensive tackle over the past two seasons. I see him ending up back at center in the NFL, where he has the potential to be a Day 1 starter because of his awareness. He's a tough and gritty blocker who plays through the whistle. As a run-blocker, Barton is excellent with rolling his hips and running his feet on contact. His flaws are exposed when facing longer defenders, as he struggles with counter moves and re-adjusting his hands to gain winning positions.

20. Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia

Height: 6-8 | Weight: 340 | Grade: Round 1

The sample size is small with Mims -- he only started eight games over the past two seasons -- but the film is very impressive. He has only played on the right side during his career but has the movement skills to transition to the left side. Mims has the lower-body quickness to mirror and match pass-rushers, and his balance helps him to re-direct and recover against countermoves. His frame makes it hard for rushers to get around him, too. And Mims is a mauler in the run game -- his power can quickly overwhelm defenders at the point of attack. Durability, though, remains a major concern after he missed six games last season with an ankle issue.

21. Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 205 | Grade: Round 1

After originally starting his career with Georgia, Mitchell transferred to Texas before the 2023 season and quickly became a big part of the Longhorns' offense. He had career-highs in receptions (55), receiving yards (845) and touchdowns (11). And despite being a bigger receiver, Mitchell has impressive vertical speed (4.34-second 40-yard dash) and the body control to break off routes. He also has strong hands to make catches outside his frame and in contested situations. But he must become more consistent with his release plans against press coverage.

22. Cooper DeJean, CB/S, Iowa

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 203 | Grade: Round 1

DeJean is an all-around defensive back who can wear multiple hats in the secondary, though he primarily played corner at Iowa. An electrifying playmaker who can generate turnovers, he had three career pick-sixes. I like his projection better at safety because of all he can do in a defensive backfield, and with his physicality, fluidity and versatility, DeJean could quickly turn into a key contributor as a rookie after healing up from a lower-leg injury suffered in November.

23. Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 209 | Grade: Round 1

A traditional X receiver, Thomas is a big target who just hit career-highs in catches (68) and receiving yards (1,177) while leading the FBS in touchdown receptions (17). With threatening vertical speed, he uses his long strides to accelerate past defenders. And thanks to excellent hands and good ball-tracking skills, he's also great in contested situations. Thomas is an ascending talent who has a lot of upside as a complementary No. 2 option in the NFL.

24. Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 199 | Grade: Round 1

A long and active press-man corner, McKinstry is a polished outside defender who is hard to confuse at the line. He's heavily reliant on his instincts, with great eye discipline to read and react to routes. And McKinstry's skill set is strong but understated -- he's not flashy, he's just a technician who consistently takes care of his assignments. He has adequate short-area quickness and the vertical speed needed to carry with matchups, and he frequently shows up to wrap up and finish his tackles on ball carriers against the run. Opponents completed 32.1% percent of their passes (9 of 28) when targeting McKinstry last season, 14th-best in the FBS. A Jones fracture in his right foot was discovered during medical checks at the combine, though he should be ready for training camp.

25. Jer'Zhan Newton, DT, Illinois

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 304 | Grade: Round 1

Newton is explosive and plays every spot along the defensive line. Despite a lack of length, he is seemingly unblockable up front, finishing with 42 pressures, 7.5 sacks and a 11.4% defensive pressure rate. One of the more underrated parts of Newton's evaluation is his endurance, as his 715 snaps played ranked seventh among all FBS defensive linemen. He projects best as a 3-technique at the next level.

26. Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 311 | Grade: Round 1

Morgan suffered a torn ACL in 2022 and opted to return to Arizona for his 2023 senior season. He is a stout blocker with a dense frame, which enables him to anchor as a pass-protector. He's able to quickly call out and communicate defensive structures. Scouts have mixed opinions on his NFL position, as some like him at tackle, while others believe he has more upside at guard.

27. Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 173 | Grade: Round 2

One of the most improved defenders in the country, Wiggins is patient and sudden. He has the versatility in man and zone coverage to suffocate matchups. He hardly ever panics in his technique, staying glued to wide receivers. His vision and instincts in reacting to routes are among the best of this class, and he also has very good ball skills (three picks and 17 pass breakups over the past two seasons). And his 4.28-second 40-yard dash time paced all of the defensive backs at the combine.

28. J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 219 | Grade: Round 2

McCarthy is one of the most talked about prospects in this draft cycle. In a Michigan offense that leans on the run and incorporates play-action principles, he only reached 25 or more passing attempts in 12 of his 28 career starts. Scouts wanted to see more. That said, McCarthy displayed ball placement, anticipation and mobility when he has been allowed to throw the ball, outside of an uncharacteristically poor three-interception performance against Bowling Green early last season. His 88.2 QBR and 72.3% completion percentage were both top-six numbers in the country in 2023.

29. Darius Robinson, EDGE, Missouri

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 285 | Grade: Round 2

Robinson is one of the most scheme-versatile defensive linemen in this class. With heavy hands, first-step quickness and solid finishing ability, he had 8.5 sacks in 2023. But Robinson is also a dependable run defender who constantly plays with a physical nature, and I've heard comparisons to Patriots defensive lineman Keion White. After an impressive showing at the Senior Bowl, Robinson has the chance to go in Round 1.

30. Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 328 | Grade: Round 2

Powers-Johnson is as consistent as they come. He has a wide frame that makes it difficult for defenders to get around him, strong hands and a durable anchor, with the ability to sink his weight and quickly stop the rush of interior defenders. JPJ has only played center for one season -- he played right guard in 2022 -- but it's nearly impossible to tell because he's so polished. Powers-Johnson has Day 1 starter potential, and I thought he was the best Senior Bowl performer.

31. Chop Robinson, EDGE, Penn State

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 254 | Grade: Round 2

Robinson is among the most explosive players in this class, regardless of position, with the quickness to routinely race past blockers. We saw it at the combine, when he posted a 10-foot-8 broad jump and 4.48-second time in the 40. He had four sacks last season, but his 18% pressure rate would have been fourth-best in the FBS had it qualified. I see plenty of lower-body flexibility to quickly turn the corner and force blockers to abandon their technique. His run defense remains a work in progress, as Robinson must be more physical and disciplined when setting the edge, but most of his value comes as a pass-rusher -- where he excels. He'll be a 3-4 outside linebacker in the NFL but still needs to continue to add weight to his frame.

32. Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma

Height: 6-8 | Weight: 322 | Grade: Round 2

After beginning his career at TCU (2020-21), Guyton has developed quite a bit since arriving at Oklahoma, gaining experience at both tackle spots (zero sacks allowed last season). He settled in on the right side, thriving in space where he can use his arm length. His footwork and quickness provide a dependable foundation to expand the pocket, but a lack of play strength is a problem. Guyton simply needs to get stronger to unlock the next stages of his development. He flashed intriguing tools at the Senior Bowl, and scouts are enamored with his potential at either tackle spot.

33. Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas

Height: 5-11 | Weight: 165 | Grade: Round 2

The first recruit that coach Steve Sarkisian signed after being hired at Texas, Worthy is a speedy but slightly built pass-catcher who can create separation in routes. We saw both sides in his combine numbers: Worthy weighed in at just 165 pounds but then ran the fastest 40-yard dash since at least 2003 at 4.21 seconds. He is the definition of a "sudden-change player" -- a guy who can flip the scoreboard in one play. When he has the ball in space, his speed allows him to gain yards after the catch in a hurry (579 of his 1,014 receiving yards last season came after the catch). Worthy is competitive and physical, too. And while drops have plagued him throughout his career, his drop percentage reduced from 8.8% in 2022 to 4.2% in 2023.

34. Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 213 | Grade: Round 2

Coleman made an instant impact with FSU after transferring from Michigan State before last season. His big frame helps him play through contact, and he's also a strong route runner and dominant at the catch point. He has consistent ball-tracking skills (11 touchdown catches in 2023); he seems to see the ball in slow motion. But creating consistent separation outside of the red zone and in the underneath areas has room for improvement. His 4.61-second run in the 40 at the combine wasn't ideal, though he plays faster than his timed speed would indicate.

35. Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 230 | Grade: Round 2

It's an underwhelming linebacker class, but Cooper stands out as a model of the modern-day NFL second-level defender. He not only has the range and instincts to man the controls inside but also the traits to blitz off the edge. Cooper's 26% pressure percentage would have led all FBS linebackers in 2023 if he had enough pass-rush snaps to qualify, and he added 14 tackles for loss and eight sacks. His aggressive playing style can be a gift and a curse, though, as he occasionally becomes an arm tackler, which leads to missed opportunities (12 missed tackles).

36. Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 186 | Grade: Round 2

A strong argument could be made that McConkey is the best overall route runner in this loaded receiver class. Overexaggerating body movements and suddenness at the top of his routes helps him consistently get open. His change-of-direction traits were on full display at his mid-March pro day. McConkey -- who caught 30 passes for 478 yards and a pair of scores in 2023 while dealing with a few injuries -- leverages his way into quick wins against man coverage and can find holes against zone looks. He has an NFL-ready game that's going to get him on the field very early as a rookie.

37. Kingsley Suamataia, OT, BYU

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 326 | Grade: Round 2

After spending his first season at Oregon, Suamataia transferred to BYU before the 2022 campaign and played right tackle for the Cougars. He transitioned to the left side as a redshirt sophomore last year, and he's still feeling his way through the details of the position. Suamataia has all the traits that NFL teams covet, and his lower-half suddenness helps him stay square with most rushers. But he's still a projection for scouts. His balance and hand placement are inconsistent, and he often plays with too much forward body lean (which leads to an unstable base). With increased reps and added strength, Suamataia has the potential to be a dependable starter at either tackle spot in the future.

38. Adisa Isaac, EDGE, Penn State

Height: 6-4 | Weight: 247 | Grade: Round 2

Isaac has continued to show growth since his return from a torn Achilles before the 2021 season. He is an explosive edge rusher who gets up the field in a hurry and has the bend to turn the corner and finish. He had 7.5 sacks and the nation's seventh-highest pressure rate at 16.8% last season. His understanding and execution of pass-rush moves has improved, and he has value in late-down situations by creating pressure on stunts. Isaac will need to continue to add mass onto his frame -- his lack of lower-body strength shows up when taking on blocks -- and he will probably need to primarily be a designated pass-rusher at the beginning of his pro career.

39. Christian Haynes, G, UConn

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 317 | Grade: Round 2

Haynes is an underrated prospect who has continued to climb my board this spring, checking every box during the pre-draft process. He played only right guard during his college career (49 starts), but he took reps at center during Senior Bowl practices, showing his versatility. Haynes has outstanding lower-body strength and the strong hands to cancel out pass-rushers, and he allowed five pressures and zero sacks over the past two seasons. I had an early Day 3 grade on him after the 2023 season, but he looks like a second-rounder at this point.

40. Mike Sainristil, CB, Michigan

Height: 5-9 | Weight: 182 | Grade: Round 2

Sainristil has experience at both nickel and outside corner, but his lean frame will likely keep him inside at the next level. Even so, nickel corners have become important in today's NFL, and Sainristil constantly made game-changing plays last season. He brings toughness to a defense and shows good ball skills, picking off six passes in 2023. If there's one inside corner who I could see becoming a starter very early in their rookie season, he's the guy.

41. Roger Rosengarten, OT, Washington

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 308 | Grade: Round 2

Rosengarten had some exceptional tape last season. The smooth mover didn't surrender a single sack in college, holding down the right tackle spot for Washington since 2022 (28 starts). He's a consistent pass-protector, but he still needs to gain strength to sustain at the point of attack as a run-blocker. Zone-scheme teams that are searching for a long-term solution at right tackle will likely have a lot of interest in him.

42. Kris Jenkins, DT, Michigan

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 299 | Grade: Round 2

Jenkins was a key impact player for the best defense in college football last season, with 15 starts, 37 tackles, 2.5 sacks and an interception. He has powerful hands that help him stack and maintain his ground as a run-defender. With a strong base, Jenkins can step in right away in the NFL and be counted on as a run-defender. He's relatively raw as a pass-rusher, though, and he's still experimenting with moves and plans of attack in that part of his game.

43. Zach Frazier, C, West Virginia

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 313 | Grade: Round 2

Frazier is arguably the toughest of the center group. Consider: After suffering a broken leg at the end of the 2023 season, he limped his way off the field to avoid a 10-second clock runoff. And that type of grit is littered throughout his game film. Frazier surrendered just one sack over the past two seasons and is as consistent as they come. He projects as an early starter once fully healthy.

44. Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 216 | Grade: Round 2

It has been a long road for Penix, suffering four straight season-ending injuries while at Indiana. But after transferring to Washington, he has managed to stay healthy over the past two years -- though durability will still be a major talking point with his evaluation. Penix is a hard-throwing lefty who can push the ball to any part of the field. He compiled 4,903 passing yards, 36 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions over 15 games. When he's able to set his feet, Penix can layer and distribute with ease, as he completed 69.2% of his passes last season when planted. That number slipped to 54.9% when shuffling and 45.8% while on the move. Penix has some mobility, but he prefers to win from within the pocket.

45. Xavier Legette, WR, South Carolina

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 221 | Grade: Round 2

Legette only reached double-digit catches in one of four seasons before grabbing 71 receptions for 1,255 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 2023. He's built like a linebacker but is able to sink his weight to get in and out of breaks with ease. Legette also works hard to fight through and win against press coverage -- he is hardly ever knocked off his route stems and remains competitive through contact.

46. Max Melton, CB, Rutgers

Height: 5-11 | Weight: 187 | Grade: Round 2

With experience in the slot and on the outside, Melton is among the most versatile defensive backs in this class. He has exceptional movement skills and had a really good combine showing, including a 4.39 in the 40-yard dash. There will be questions about where Melton should line up in the secondary in the pros, but he has the playmaking skills (eight interceptions over the past three seasons) and tackling ability to make an impact wherever he settles in. And as a bonus, Melton is an A-plus special teams player, as he had four blocked punts during his career.

47. Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 189 | Grade: Round 2

Pearsall has aced the pre-draft process, standing out at the Senior Bowl and then having a really good combine week (4.41-second 40-yard dash and 42-inch vertical). The Arizona State transfer is a natural route runner with a knack for getting open at all three levels. He's at his best in the short and intermediate areas where he can create separation right away. Pearsall also has a great catch radius to reel in off-target passes. He projects as a future WR2, but the maturity of his game could give him an opportunity to play quality snaps early as a pro. He finished 2023 with 65 catches for 965 yards and four TDs.

48. Junior Colson, LB, Michigan

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 238 | Grade: Round 2

Colson was the anchor of the Wolverines' defense last season as a true downhill spark plug. He fills running lanes with authority, making 101 tackles last season. And with a good feel for keying, reading and diagnosing run schemes, he is ready to contribute right away from a run defense perspective. But Colson remains a work in progress in coverage, as his zone awareness must improve and his fluidity in man coverage can be inconsistent.

49. Marshawn Kneeland, EDGE, Western Michigan

Height: 6-3 | Weight: 267 | Grade: Round 2

Three of his 4.5 sacks last season came in one game (at Eastern Michigan) where he flashed pro-level traits that have evaluators buzzing. Kneeland might not ever be a player who consistently fills up the stat sheet, but he's a durable defensive end with NFL-ready play strength. He's also very versatile and can play in multiple fronts, and his length and power help him as a run-defender (29 run stops over the past two seasons). His nuance and creativity as a pass-rusher must improve, but Kneeland has multiple tools that could make him an early Day 2 pick.

50. Bo Nix, QB, Oregon

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 214 | Grade: Round 2

It has been a tale of two careers for Nix. He was seemingly an NFL afterthought while at Auburn, but he revived his career after transferring to Oregon before the 2022 season. Nix is a quick decision-maker and wastes little time getting the ball out. He's also an accurate passer who operated in a timing-based Ducks system, finishing last season with a 77.4% completion rate (best in the country). And with 45 touchdown passes to three interceptions, he is an efficient thrower who doesn't make many mistakes.
